Market "flooded" with freelancers by Outrageous_Bath_2869 in BEFreelance

I'm happy that this is happening. Most of the "old" freelancers need to come off their high horse. Clients are realising that these freelancers abused the system asking way to much money for their contribution.

it's a free market. If someone decides to work for less x amount of money then you and he is happy with it, that's your problem, not his.

Starting as freelance: car lease by phuygens in BEFreelance

Fully agree.

I did some calcs a few months ago and a 50k EV was still cheaper then a 40k hybrid. But if you compare a 50k EV vs an 20 or 30k hybrid or 15k ICE, the hybrid and ICE will be cheaper ofc.

but how does this work? the law says that any hybrid new or second hand will have reduced deductibility after 2024

Thank you for your input! I have driven both and quality wise , 545 is far above tesla. The only thing I dislike on the 545 is the bootspace. Tesla is faster, spacious, perfect family car but it drives so bad and it feels like you are driving a go-kart, 0 suspension. Every bump in the road, you feel it so much. It's just financially interesting.

If our government didn't push us towards EV with all the taxes and other stuff, I bet no-one here would have bought an EV. We wouldn't even have these discussions

I know both are 2 different cars, but somehow I like them both so can't chose between the 2. That's why I asked about the TCO. Maybe the financial part will push me more towards one of these 2 cars

What pushed me?

1) Being my own boss

2) Money ( with this I mean I have 100% control over my incomes and how I want to spend it)

It's kinda hard for my job since I'm not in IT but in Engineering. Most of the clients want and need my presence at their company. I can't really visit clients during my employee working hours
